If you are a fan of the Hobbit, there is a series of videos on YouTube which Peter Jackson and company have been putting out to hype the movie. This has been going on for about a year before the movie was released and includes interviews, set designs, etc. One of the interesting points I found was that while the movie was shot with digital cameras, they are able to tell how much film they would have used if they had used film - 22 million feet and they hadn't done re-shoots or pick-ups yet. While admittedly it is a trilogy, you can see how half a billion feet are used in two years by one studio.

Once a photographer is convinced that the camera can lie and that, strictly speaking, the vast majority of photographs are "camera lies," inasmuch as they tell only part of a story or tell it in a distorted form, half the battle is won. Once he has conceded that photography is not a "naturalistic" medium of rendition and that striving for "naturalism" in a photograph is futile, he can turn his attention to using a camera to make more effective pictures.
